Russian President Vladimir Putin suggested the war in Ukraine was drawing to a close — just hours after he vowed to triumph at Moscow’s puniest Victory Day parade in years.
“I think that the matter is coming to an end,” Putin told reporters inside the Kremlin Saturday about the four-year-long war.
The strongman also said he would be willing to sit-down with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in a neutral country, but only once final agreements to end the war have been reached.
The potential face-to-face meeting would focus on signing the agreements — not on negotiations, Putin emphasized.
His remarks come on the heels of a fragile three-day cease-fire between the warring countries brokered by Washington to coincide with Russia’s annual Victory Day parade, marking the Soviet Union’s historic victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.
Meanwhile President Trump said Saturday he was ready to send a high-powered US delegation into Moscow as part of an intensified push to end the deadly conflict.
